The Book Project: Landscape

Black Box Gallery is excited to announce a juried call for entry for a published hardbound photography book on Landscape Photography. Landscape photography is the art of capturing pictures of nature and the outdoors in a way that brings your viewer into the scene. From grand landscapes to intimate details, the best photos demonstrate the photographer’s own connection to nature and capture the essence of the world around them. The gallery will be selecting 10 photographers to feature 5 photographs each for this hardbound book project.

The book project is a series of focused hardbound photography books published by Black Box Gallery. Each printed book will focus on a specific theme or concept in photography and will use a call for entry that will be open to all levels of photographers worldwide. Each published book will have 10 photographers selected and have 5 photographs from each photographer printed as a focused representation of their photographic work. The hardbound photography book will be printed by Blurb Books and will be available for purchase on the Black Box Gallery website.
